With soothing we get to stay connected.
I think to be fair though, its that I have difficulty in knowing what the feelings are. Just remembering that dream has helped me see like far said, that the feeling of being unsafe is one, anger of Ts being with her family is another and underneath that is hurt...until I begun this thread I was seriously spiralling and about to act out beause I had no clue to what was wrong, I do now and will try to soothe those feelings of anger, hurt and feeling unsafe!
Thanks for this!
